by

This Strawberry Cheesecake is a luscious dessert that captures the essence of summer with its creamy texture and fresh strawberry flavor. The buttery graham cracker crust provides a delightful crunch, perfectly complementing the rich and smooth filling. Topped with sweet, juicy strawberries and a glossy glaze, this cheesecake not only looks stunning but also delivers an explosion of flavor in every bite.

Ingredients:

For the Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup melted butter

For the Filling:

  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, pureed

For the Topping:

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1/4 cup strawberry jam
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar and vanilla, mixing until combined.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in sour cream, heavy cream, and pureed strawberries until smooth.
  5. Pour the filling over the crust and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let the cheesecake cool for 1 hour.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before removing from the springform pan.
  7. For the topping, mix sliced strawberries with strawberry jam and lemon juice. Spread over the chilled cheesecake before serving.
